The Joy of Christmas!

"Jesus came to demonstrate what God’s Kingdom is like and to make a way for us to enter into it. You see, what keeps us from entering into His Kingdom is our current life (Lk. 14:26-27). The life we inherited from our parents cannot inherit God’s Kingdom (1 Cor. 15:50). (This is why Jesus said to enter the kingdom of God you must be born again (Jn. 3:3-5).)

"When we give our old life to Jesus and receive His new life, then we can have access to His Kingdom (Col. 1:12; 3:12) and we get to live under His reign! Jesus becomes our life, our King, our Savior, our Lord! We were far from God, but Jesus brings us near (Eph. 2:13). We were in sin, but Jesus makes us righteous (2 Cor. 5:21). We were darkness, but Jesus makes us light (Eph. 5:8). We were under the domain of the devil, but Jesus brings us in the Kingdom of God (Ac. 26:18). We were dead, but Jesus makes us alive (Eph. 2:5). We were separated from God, but Jesus unites us with God (Col. 1:21; 1 Cor. 6:17). The all-wise, all-good, all-loving Creator of the universe can be Your King! You can leave the dominion of Satan! You can be free from the dominion of sin!
